Interior paint?
What color/type of paint would you use to paint defroster vents? My interior is blue.

I would think that since the vents are plastic, you could use just about any kind of paint you want, Kryon, Rustoleum, or whatever, and I'd find a color that was close to the color of the metal surrounding it, unless you want them to look different, like black or something.

I painted mine black with the model spray paint at wall mart. Best spray stuff you can buy. (at 3 bucks for a tiny @ss can, it better be)

My metal dash is also Blue. I have aftermarket original style black vents to compliment my Black dash pad.

If you can find a satin/low gloss paint about the same color as your blue, that would be the trick. Won't reflect the sunlight?
